Comfy beds ,sofas and lovely hot showers . Lots of walks in village just go explore . There is lots of information in chapel of the village and places to go and visit which was very helpfull. Loved the log fire we had it on every night nice and cozy. Will be back again some time in the future

Everything at the chapel was wonderful and the owner very friendly and helpful. Beautiful countryside with challenging hills! Within two minute walk is a pub which served excellent food for our large group. Will definitely visit again.

“The Chapel was fantastic and the ...”

The Chapel was fantastic and the location was perfect very peaceful and the Inn at Penallt 30 seconds away had lovely food and the service was excellent we would definitely recommend this Chapel to stay at and we will definately stay there again thank you Terry and Ade you have a lovey holiday home x

“Fabulous”

Just spent a wonderful week at this beautiful clean and comfortable cottage. Everything has been thought of. The chapel is tastefully decorated with top of the range interior. There is a lovely wood burner and underfloor heating so would be lovely and warm if having a winter stay. Owners Terry and Ade are very friendly and nothing is too much bother.
We took our Springer Spaniel Milly and she settled in well. Loads of walks local and afar. A week is not longer enough to see everything.
There is a local pub which in my mind is fine for drinks but didn't rate the overpriced food but staff were very friendly.
If you are looking for a comfortable base in a beautiful part of Wales you can't go wrong here. Raglan Castle and Tintern Old Railway Station were out favourites and very dog friendly.
We hope to come back next year.

“Everything and More”

Loved staying at this very clean, unique, fantastic cottage. Very comfortable beds, sitting area also very cozy especially with the wood burning stove. The kitchen is supplied with all the tools and appliances you need for modern comfort. We were lucky and had beautiful weather for sitting in the garden. An added bonus was the 1 minute walk to The Penallt Inn Pub.

“Gorgeous conversion, local area and Village”

We were wowed by the standard of the Chapel and couldn't believe such a beautifully kept cottage with gorgeous furnishings was dog friendly.
Would highly recommend.
Loved the décor; the amount of provisions like cutlery, coffee machine etc; and how well converted the chapel had been done. The history and closeness to the walks and Village pub was brilliant too.
The Chapel has been lovingly converted and had us romanticising about living there. We stayed as a couple but wish we had taken friends to share the experience with us.
The home is on the path of a lovely 4.5 mile walk along the river Wye and through Penallt Village. It is also around 1 minute away from the local pub The Inn at Penallt which was really welcoming and served an amazing pork belly main.
It was the perfect retreat - no phone or wifi signal during the break, which was perfect for us, but perhaps not for others relying on a signal.
we took our very small min pin dog with us, who also had a great time!
Our only small disappointment was with not being able to adjust the heating ourselves, or have any extra blankets available. Generally the Chapel is really nice and cosy with the log burner and under floor heating, however when this didn't 'kick in' it was a little chilly.

“Amazing house and amazing area”

This house is beautiful. It has been tastefully renovated and is so comfortable, I would happily live there. The surrounding area is beautiful with lovey walks, although bear in mind that there is some hill walking! The Inn, which is literally a minutes walk away is brilliant.
All in all a brilliant time was had, so thank you.

“Absolutely gorgeous”

Stayed here with my husband, 10 year old daughter and our dog and we absolutely loved it. The accommodation is absolutely gorgeous and the owners have thought of everything! The village itself is beautiful but we didn't venture out nearly as much as we should as we didn't want to leave the Chapel! Will definitely be returning and would recommend to anyone

About the location

PENALLT

Monmouth 6 miles; Chepstow 14 miles; Lydney 15 miles.

The charming village of Penallt sits on the west bank of the beautiful River Wye in the Wye Valley. On the border of England and Wales, the village boasts stunning views, Nature Reserves, an SSSI and two excellent local pubs serving locally sourced food and real ales. The Offa's Dyke footpath, Wye Valley Walk and the Three Castles Walk all run through or close to this unspoilt area of Monmouthshire. The magnificent Royal Forest of Dean, England's largest oak forest and an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, is just a short drive away, and offers numerous trails that can be explored either on foot, by bicycle or on horseback. Caving, abseiling and a high wire rope course are for the more adventurous, whilst fishing, golf, kayaking and canoeing are other popular activities in this area. Visit the historic town of Monmouth with its mixture of elegant Georgian mansions and Victorian courtyards, or the lovely market town of Ross on Wye is close by, with timbered Tudor houses, excellent shops, pubs and restaurants. Just a little further afield are the unspoilt Malvern Hills, Black Mountains and Brecon Beacons National Park. A great area to unwind with family and friends.
